Scanning Options
Use the following settings to determine which results Recuva displays:
| Setting | Notes |
| Show files found in hidden system directories |
If you select this option, Recuva will display files from hidden system directories such as \WINDOWS\ and \Documents and Settings\. |
| Show zero-byte files |
If you select this option, Recuva will show you files that have no content. These files cannot be recovered. |
| Show securely overwritten files |
If you select this option, Recuva will list files it has securely deleted in the Results window. See this topic for more information on secure deletion.
Note: If you use CCleaner, it changes the filename to ZZZZZZZ.ZZZ when it securely deletes a file, for security reasons. |
| Deep Scan (increases scan time) |
See this topic for more information. |
| Scan for non-deleted files |
See this topic for more information. |
Recovery options
To restore the files in the same folders they were deleted from, select Restore folder structure.
For example, if you are recovering these files to E:\Recovery
- C:\test.txt
- C:\Word\sample.doc
- C:\Program\Install\install.bat
using the restore folder structure option, they will be recovered as:
- E:\Recovery\test.txt
- E:\Recovery\Word\sample.doc
- E:\Recovery\Program\Install\install.bat
If you do not use the restore folder structure option, they will be recovered as:
- E:\Recovery\test.txt
- E:\Recovery\ sample.doc
- ???E:\Recovery\ install.bat
